Stock Ls crank will hold 1000hp. Its been proven with turbo setups.
Would I push a stock Ls crank to 1000hp? No, but have ran it 700+ for 2yrs.
The stock crack design gm rods only good to about 500-600hp w/arp bolts.
To give you an example:
My 2000 SS w/
stock block,crank,rods,pistons
Heads/Cam package
made 442rwhp & ran a 250hp shot (NX wetkit) for 2 yrs and track'd it almost every weekend + street racing @ night.
Never blew up, Just sold car cause I was building my house.
